How do automatic bids work?

By setting up an automatic bid, our system will automatically place new bids on your behalf each time you are outbid. All you need to do is enter the maximum price you are willing to bid for an item. Our system will then keep on bidding for you, by the smallest possible increase each time, until your maximum price is reached.

This work originates from the collection of a friend of the artist, who obtained it from the artist’s estate.

Jaap Oudes (1926-1998), son of painter Dirk Oudes, was a Dutch artist. From an early age, he was encouraged by his father to start drawing. 'You don't have to go to an academy to learn it', he would always say. As an autodidact, Jaap continued to draw throughout his entire life, almost always with pencil and coloured pencil. Oudes was mostly inspired by folk art and stories of Felix Timmermans and other Flemish narrators. It was only natural for him to follow in Brueghel’s footsteps.

Drawings by Jaap Oudes cannot be categorised into an art movement in art history, but could be described as folk surrealism. His work is cheerful and humorous and seems influenced by the subconscious. Jaap Oudes always resisted a rational analysis of his work. Drawing was a spontaneous and intuitive process to him.

About the work:

In this drawing, the fantasy of Jaap Oudes had free play and monks drinking Calvados are having a party. The holy Aubert is telling off a monk for his boisterous behaviour. Even a cheese carrier from Alkmaar (place of residence of Jaap Oudes) is joining in.

Very late in delevering, and the first painting arrived broken! We are talking about how they will pay for the cost! Also it was not good pact and I will not bid again at somthing they offer.!!!

We try to come to a agreement, but they only talk about the solution from transporter, but the problem was the packing!! I decided not to argue anymore. There answer was not acceptable for me! Wast of energie en respect! i am waiting already for two weeks for a other painting I both, hope this one is wrapped up better!!

We apologise for the inconvenience. Very sad to read this feedback as we were still in contact to come to a solution together. We rarely have problems with our packing techniques and that's why I dare to say something must have happened ''on the way''. Which we were trying to find out, meanwhile we offered to prepare the glass on our cost and to find a solution for the damage artwork. We are only human and this doesnt happen overnight. Also, your second parcel did arrive on time, but as you confirmed us; you are in Paris, so the post man was standing in front of a closed door.

We are very sad to read this comment as we are always trying to keep our customers happy by doing our best we can. We still hope to see you again in the future and that's why we offer free shipment on your next purchase.

We’re sorry, we're unable to accept your bid
